  3. Searching for women named Polly born in Monson about 1788 yields only Polly Haynes. The death record of what appears to be her daughter Mary (Austin) Goodell (here, record 10) names her first husband as Joseph Austin explaining her name at the time of marriage to Abel Wilder. She appears to be the Mrs. Austen listed in Brimfield VRs as mother of 3 baptized children (p. 12: Hiram, Mary, and Sarah Dow). Circumstantial.
